## Caption

This is a real letter from a real USSSA athlete.

Kash was just a kid on a T-ball team when his dad’s health started failing. Swollen legs.
Some days he could barely walk. But he never missed a game.
Two years later, his dad needed a kidney transplant. Chemo. Dialysis. A Thanksgiving day pass from the hospital, just to be with his family for a few hours.
Kash’s mom turned out to be the match.

Today Kash is twelve. His dad is still fighting, every single day.
“He is my hero. I play for him every time I step on the field.”
Tag someone who’s your hero on and off the field.

ABOUT THIS VIDEO: Kash’s letter to his dad is real. To bring it to the screen, we adapted his words, added scenes and dialogue to help tell the story, and used a fictional voice to narrate it. The voice you hear is not Kash’s.
